What a weekend. I arrived at the island to find it was tiny, just large enough for the house we were staying in and a moderate sized yard with towering pines. Woke Saturday to an amazing red sky over the mountains and we snarfed some food, hopped the boat to shore and climed on our bikes. The route ended up being 170 miles with about 13k of vertical. About 95% was on really nice surface and 5% kinda banged up. Great views. Very hilly the first 75 miles with two longer climbs and basically non-stop large rollers. After that, it was flat to gently rolling with a few larger inclines and two serious climbs, one about 10 miles from the end. Finished up, got back to the isalnd, huge dinner with drinks and loads of laughs with a crowd of about 15 (7 of us did the long route), followed a by a relaxing Sunday of swimming and hanging in the sun before going home. Awesome weekend. I will post some pictures later. Mine are just of the island but ride photos will be circulated soon I suspect.
